Hey Chidge and all.
What can I say?
What happened on Wednesday was unbelievable.
Postponed due to fog. What fog?
Anyway, we started well but conceded a flipping SET PIECE from bad defending especially Alex.
How can you concede a corner from the half way line.
After that we whupped their arse.
Good save by Cech after an enonimous mistake by Mikel.
Great goal by Ballack.
Good time to score.
In the second half, we pretty much swept them off the pitch.
Good goals.

Anyway, I got my Chelsea calendar for 2009.
I opened the calendar and I saw there were the players autographs.
Ooh, first thing tht crossed my mind... Autograph Book needs its update.
Alright, here comes a sad part.
Yes that's right my precious forges have been lost.
The autograph book has passed on/ lost.
A moment of silence would cheer me up and would show your appreciation.
I will try and find them.

My favourite part of the show is obviously Tales from the Shed.
My question this week.
Will Drogba leave?

Please can you put my post on the podcast. It's the only thing that cheers me up after Joe Cole's horrendous injury against the Shrimpers.

P.S- Chelsea were singing oh aho oh aho Can you the Shrimpers sing? I can't here a flipping thing !!!!!!
By the way your programme is definetly "the dogs bo---cks"

Hi guys,

great song to sing to those mickey mousers
liverpool are ya listening?
to the song that were singing?

kissing chelsea asses as we go a long!
what do you think?

Keep it up
keep the blue flag flying high
(and the pints full!)

Any chance of Fancast 063 being downloaded onto iTunes before episode 064 is due? What is taking so long? Get it sorted please.

Based on the alpha personalities of the squad, I think Guus Hiddink would be a better than Ancellotti. Think about it..Grant, Scolari, Ancelloti..gentle passive people (at least as their public persona's goes). Mourinho was an alpha male..took control, had assertion..said to all that Chelsea were not to be messed with. Now look at some of the squad..Terry, Lampard, Ballack, Drogba (back to front). These are captains (also possible) of their international squads. They tell people what to do. These type of people respond to people who are firm, decisive, and have presence. Hiddink is the person who can steer these hungry guys to success.

We were shite v wolves three points though.
My question is: Who has been the biggest entertainer @ chelsea
ps- Keep the blue flag flying high!!

On the podcast after Wolves a.k.a mugs game my Dad texted in.. That is right i am Tyler !!
I just wanted to say we might not be able to attend the podcast at putney next week but I will try to get in the malthouse!
Keep up the good work

We had a great Chelsea night last night with 20 mins to get there we were stuck in tragic because of the tube strikes and ran all the way to the ground blurting out chels songs

Just saw the game against Spartak Moscow and saw the post match interview with Carlo. As he’s picking up more English language we get to learn more about how he has a great sense of humour. Brana scoring 3 goals. What a laugh! 2 for us, 1 for them. I saw the interview on the internet as I am from Orange County California

We gotta sing his name, Roman deserves it, top man, we need to show our appreciation, we have to have a chant, Roman is a fan and loves the club, I will sing his name at the next match, great podcast, thank you :D

thanks Don Carlo, Thanks all Players, both of you were worked very hard during this season, lets see the future with any better improvement. Love U Chelsea F.C.
God Bless you.

Dear Mart,

Yank listener here for a couple of years: fascinated by the rich club culture and tradition which “you lot” express with such passion and defend so fiercely.

Last week, I was particularly intrigued by your interview with John King. I haven’t read the novel yet, but I watched “The Football Factory” last night.

I must say, I was a bit bewildered by it all. I get social alienation, but in the film, at least, I could not see clear links between social and generational themes and a flat out commitment to fighting linked to football. The only sense I could make of the commitment to violence and the almost complete exclusion of actual football from the mindset on screen involved A. tribalism, B. addiction to adrenalin levels not provided by the actual games, C. appalling parenting, and D. omission from the fore-shortened film of nuances in the novel that might help a barbarian like me understand.

Anyway, I have a couple of questions for the crew:

1. How do you guys see the intersection and divergence between football club culture you represent so well and the hooligans’ commitment to violence?

2. How much of the famous hooligan violence of earlier decades is still part of the scene?

3. How can you help a Yank like me understand the linkage of football and violence?

we are going to munich munich :D
